The members of my church have a volunteer schedule in place to keep the church grounds mowed and tidy during the summer months. One of these members, Mr. William, likes to lower the deck of his mower and cut the design of a cross in the middle of the church/parsonage backyard.
I was not really surprised to find the above cross mowed into my backyard after Mr. William took his turn mowing the church grounds this past weekend.
What I found farther back in the yard was a surpise—a Georgia “G”!
With college football season starting up here recently, I was joking around with Mr. William and suggested that he cut a Georgia “G” in the backyard. He said he’d put a big “UK” back there instead.
Well lo and behold if I didn’t walk outside last Friday and find a Georgia “G” cut in the backyard!
My Georgia Bulldogs pulled off a big win over South Carolina this past weekend and I give all the credit to Mr. William and the “G” in my backyard. Now I just need him to come back and keep the “G” looking good all the way until the ‘Dawgs win the national championship. I think we may have started a winning tradition.
